Song Lyrics Influence Social Behavior of People

Monday, March 15th, 2010

It is a common knowledge that song lyrics actually affect moods and social behavior of people. There was recently a study that determined the effect of certain song lyrics to the social behavior of people. Many people have actually been surprised with the findings of the research. Song lyrics would effectively initiate unintentional attitudes. Thus, many people and organizations could use specific songs with specific categories of lyrics to invoke targeted and intended social behaviors and feelings.

A research was conducted by a sophomore pre-law student of Kansas State University, Eduardo Alvarado. He conducted a practical experiment that looked at possible behaviors that could be elicited from music lyrics of specific songs. Song lyrics combined with appropriate and fitting music could activate specific feelings in the subconscious of people, making them act accordingly with the environment sans deliberate intent. This way, music and song lyrics could be used to intentionally manipulate social behavior.

The study’s major goal was to find out if specific music lyrics could really activate pro-social and anti-social responses among individuals. It sought to prove that pro-social behaviors of empathy and anti-social behaviors like aggression could result from exposure to specific types of song lyrics. Particularly, songs used were patriotic and children-friendly, specifically, ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ and ‘Itsy Bitsy Spider,’ respectively.

The participants of the research were asked to fill out survey forms that asked questions to find out religion and attitudes toward diversity and other culture. For control purposes, half of the respondents completed the survey forms prior to the lyrics-experiment; while the remaining half did the survey forms post the exercise. The aim of this action is to directly gauge and find out immediate effects of song lyrics to social behaviors.

Preliminary findings of the research showed that song lyrics actually create anti-social and pro-social responses and behaviors among participants. Songs with patriotic lyrics were able to bring about negative behavioral effects to the respondents, as shown by the way they responded to given survey questions that are about diversity and cultures. Overall, such song lyrics effectively made respondents assume prejudice and close mindedness. The researcher observed that once participants assumed a patriotic view of life, they tended to act less empathetically. Those respondents do not put themselves into perspectives of other people.

On the contrary, children’s songs like ‘Itsy Bitsy Spider’ set neutral behaviors. The respondents showed pro-social behaviors or responses. They exhibited positive behavior and openness to diversity and foreign culture. Such respondents became more empathetic and more accepting, as showed by the way they responded to survey questions.

Organizations, schools, and people could use this knowledge for their own favors. If you are convincing people to accept cultures or diversity, try to expose them first to songs with children’s lyrics. Avoid patriotic songs as lyrics of such music certainly are worded to make people stick to and be impractically loyal to their own nationality and race. Song lyrics are indeed very important. You could strategically use them.

How to Make the Best Yearbook Ever

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Making a yearbook is hard, but very rewarding work. Here are some quick tips for making your yearbook the best it can be.

1.Decide on a Theme. This is usually easier said than done, but be done it must. It is hard to put the school year into perspective before it has happened, or while it is happening, so you are going to have to put some real though into what you think might hold your classmates’ interest for the entire year. There is no tried and true method for doing this, so just do the best you can. Things you will want to keep in mind however are: how easy your theme will be to establish, how it will translate to the most people (stay away from “in jokes” if possible), and how difficult it might be to keep the theme upheld and incorporated throughout all of the sections of the yearbook, including layout and articles.

2.Make A Schedule and Stick To It. This will take some planning ahead. Make sure that you and your staff have access to your school’s events calendar so you can be sure to assign photographers and writers to attend and make a record. Making sure that this is done consistently throughout the year is going to be a huge, almost daily task, so you’ll want to make sure that you stay on top of it. There is nothing worse or more embarrassing for a yearbook staff than having some wonderful event happen at the school and having had no one there to cover it.

3.Always Be Gathering Material. This includes all types of information, from photos to stories to interviews. The more material you have to choose from, the better your yearbook will be. It may seem like a waste of time and effort at first, but when it comes time to fill those pages, you will be happy that you are able to sift through all of that stuff to find the real gems. This is especially true of photographs. Take many, many, more photos than you think you will need, knowing that a small percentage of them will turn out usable, and an even smaller, but very worthwhile percentage will turn out to be truly great.

4.Be Inclusive. If you are going to have a sections like polls, short opinions, comments, and the like, make sure that you get them from as broad a base as possible. Keep in mind that the yearbook is supposed to represent the whole school, not just members of one class or social group.

5.Check and Recheck Your Copy. The more qualified eyes you can get on your copy before it goes to press, the fewer typos, etc., you will have. Always recruit some fresh eyes – such as a parent or English teacher – as often as possible after you’ve gone through and copy-edited the book yourself a few times.

6.Choose A Great Binding Style. There are a few different ones out there, each with their own charms. If you are looking to create a yearbook in the permanent, library-quality hardcover style, thermal binding is the way to go. Have your school look into the cost of having your own thermal binding system on hand (they are surprisingly inexpensive and fun to operate) so you can get more students involved in the process, and perhaps save your school some real money over an outside printer.

How to Make Your Own Calendar

Monday, March 15th, 2010

1.Select Your Theme. The sky, as they say, is the limit here. Maybe you want to make a calender that features your and your friends’ pets? Kids? Just some of the great times you have had throughout the year? There are no limits here save your imagination. When you are selecting your theme and photos, it never hurts to be as artful as possible. Yes, you can have a calendar that features lots of posed, “smile and say cheese” photos of family and friends but why? Perhaps you want to start early in the year by resolving to take candid, funny shots, or photos of little things that your audience might otherwise forget. Here is your chance to get creative. If you are feeling stumped, feel free to borrow ideas from some of your favorite photographers.

2.Edit Your Photos. If you have a photo-editing software program such as Photoshop or PictureIt, your creativity has just begun. You don’t necessarily have to “photoshop” people or items into your photos, but by working with color balances, contrast and brightness, you can create some great and artful effects that take your photos out of the realm of the backyard snapshot.

3.Create Calendar. There are a few different software programs that can help you do this, ans most make it as easy as dropping your photos into a template. If you are not too fussy, MS Word has some simple templates for calendars, and you should also be able to find a number of them online. Take your time here and find a template that you really like. You can also simply take your photos down to your local print and copy shop and see what they have to offer, though this might take some of the DIY fun out of it.

4.Make it Personal. Here is another opportunity to get creative, or at the very least, to customize your calendar to your audience. You’ll want to include the obvious such as holidays, but you can tailor your calendar to mark your family and friends’ birthdays and anniversaries as well, and you can even mark historical (or humorous) events that occurred on the birthdays in question. Remember to refer to your overall theme as often as possible.

5.Get it Printed. If you are going to do your own printing, there are a few things that you’ll have to keep in mind. Remember, for instance that in general the back of your previous month’s photographs will be where you want to place the next month’s day grid, so you’ll have to put the paper in the printer in a certain way to make it all come out as you intend. Some software programs will walk you through the process, or you can just do some trial and error via test pages if need be.

6.Binding. A lot of calendar makers go for the simple saddle stitch with a couple of staples in the middle, but if you want to take a step up, spiral coil binding is the way to go. Take a look online or go to your print shop to explore your options there.

How to Make Your Own Poetry Book

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Putting together a book of your poems, whether for self-publishing or sending to a publisher, can take a lot of time and effort – and it should. Here are a few things to keep in mind when you are creating your own poetry book.

1.Since you will naturally want to keep your book to one poem per page (except, of course for longer works), it should be relatively easy to estimate the number of pages your finished book will be. Those that are around 30 or fewer pages are what is known as chapbooks, while fifty pages or more would constitute a full-length book. It all depends, of course, upon how much work you have that you consider ready for the world, and on how you want to present it. While full-length books should be perfect-bound in soft or hard covers, chapbooks can generally have a more casual feel to them. Take a look online or at your local print shop to see what different binding styles are out there and which one is right for the book you want to create.

2.Depending on the type of book you are putting together, you may want to arrange your poems in different ways. If you have a lot of works about a certain place or person, or have some poems that are written in a unique voice, perhaps put them together in a section of your book. Breaking up your poetry book into sections like this gives your reader something to connect with and hold onto and helps to establish themes throughout your work. One suggestion for when you are in this stage of the process is to print your pages up rather than trying to do all this arranging via a computer screen. This simply makes changes easier, and gives you a better visual idea of how your poems will appear on the page.

3.When you are deciding what to include and not to include, you may want to enlist the help of a trusted friend or writing group. In the absence of that – or even if you do have those types of resources – you will want to evaluate your own material as objectively as possible. One way to do that with poems you’ve already gone over a thousand times is to read them aloud. Doing this will help stop you from skipping ahead as you read your own overly familiar poems, and will give you a whole new perspective on your work.

4.Once you have decided which poems are going into your book, set them (and the whole project) aside for a day or two. Do anything BUT work on your book. Go for walks, visit friends, take a short vacation, whatever it takes to get you away from the project for a bit. When you get back, do more sifting, editing, and arranging.

5.When the size and order of your book are starting to gel, start trying out titles. There’s no set-in- stone method for doing this, of course, but you are stuck for ideas, you can start to get the wheels turning by choosing a favorite line, alluding to one of your themes, or even stealing a title from one of your poems. This is something that you will want to enlist some help on as well, so gather some trusted sources and run a few titles past them.

How to Put Together a Catalog

Monday, March 15th, 2010

If your company has reached the point where you feel a product catalog will help you serve your customers better, we’ve got a few tips for you to help you put together a great one.

The Mockup.

When you have an idea of hoe many products you have to sell, start creating some sample pages, either in a software program such as (Quark Xpress or Adobe Indesign) or by merely sketching them out on the size of paper you intend to use. Put the pages together and put words like “cover” and “table of contents,” etc., on the sheets where you envision these going. This is a great way to help you start to envision your catalog as a complete, real-world object.

You should also start to sketch out individual product pages. When you are doing this, you will want to make sure there is enough room for fairly high resolution photos and enough copy to do just the right amount of selling. In order to break up the monotony, you will want to feature some products more than others, giving them, for example, a two page spread, or a model shot, etc. Now is the time to start deciding these things, and to start strategically planning how best to display your products for the singular art of catalog sales.

The Copy.

There is an art to writing copy for catalogs, and it’s far too detailed to properly explain here. You have to use enough space to make the case for the product without taking up too much space – a fine line indeed. If you feel like this task is more than you can handle, keep in mind that there are plenty of professionals out there who are more than capable. Just look around online for someone whose work you admire.

In order to make your catalog as entertaining as possible, you might want to include such things as testimonials, lots of graphics, story sidebars and special offers. These are the type of things that keep you reader’s eyes on the page. Another thing to consider might be an opening letter from the company president.

The Cover.

There are no hard and fast rules here except for one: make them want to open it. Make your photographs include a person or people living the good life with your product. Also hint or “tease” with special offers and the like. There are so many things vying for the attention to the average consumer these days, so you want to do everything you can to make sure you pique their interest and keep it as long as possible.

The Order Form.

Do not take this lightly! There are too many things to take into account when you are putting together an order form. For instance, you want to make sure that it is clear what sort of payments you accept, how to order more than one of a given product, how to calculate sales tax, and different shipping options. One good solution? Find a good example from one of the big boys and crib from it.

Print and Bind It.

Glossy? Semi-Glossy? Go down to your local printer and take a look at your options. Remember that pages that are too glossy can be difficult to read in some kinds of light. As far as binding, a lot of companies just go for normal two-staple saddle stitch, but more and more are finding that plastic comb or spiral coil bound catalogs tend to hang around the customer’s house longer before they find the recycle bin.

How to Sketch the Portions of Any Portrait Symmetrical and Consistently

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Perhaps you might have discovered this on your own: it is definitely challenging to draw the distinct parts of a person’s face. It usually takes lots of practice to produce wonderful and lively noses, eyes, mouth and wild hair. Even if you learned these capabilities it is not just about all you need for drawing portraits!

Putting together these distinct portions into a picture of a face is sometimes more challenging. Just about all portions need to be on the proper place. And what makes it sometimes more challenging is balance: it is not enough to draw one eye on the proper place, the other eye will have to be in right location, as well … and the two eyes will have to be symmetrical.

The same is true for the mouth area, the nose, the ears and so on. Failing to produce balance (perhaps by negligible differences) makes the portrait look clumsy and distorted.

So exactly how could this be fixed and prevented?

It really is just about all about utilizing helper lines to produce a very first layout to direct you.

While looking frontally at a face or a portrait you view, you could easily add some traces to locate the proper positions for just about all features:

- One line via the centre of the face – alongside the axis of the nose.

- One line thru the eyes … in the middle of the-height of the face.

- On this line between the eyes will have to be enough room so a 3 rd eye could possibly fit in.

- The nose tip is halfway between the eyeline and the chin or at one 3 rd of the head’s height.

- The mouth’s location is about 2/3 to halfway between the nosetip and the chin.

Sounds simple? Well it’s, but merely so long as you draw faces in ideal frontal perspective. And that is the reason for many complications starting portrait artists encounter! Most probably you’re trying to draw faces in some kind of non-frontal view.

The moment you try this just about all the simple helper lines I instructed you about need to be modified to stick to the 3d shape of the face. So you better utilize these steps:

a) You commence having an egg shape for the face. The point will be the chin so it should point to the bottom.

b) Next we add the centre line that runs through there in which the nose should be. But on this occasion it is a curve pursuing the egg shape of the face.

c) Then visualize the egg to be sliced horizontally in two parts. That’s where the eye-line is found.

d) On the eye line add some marks where the eyes ought to be located (remember to make enough room between for a 3 rd eye). Never forget to take the foreshortening into consideration, the eye that is on the contrary side of the face will seem a lot smaller.

e) For the nose tip and the lips place some tiny marks on the centre line appropriately.

f) Now you know where to add which parts of the face, you just need to insert the features.

g) To ensure that the features don’t appear much too flat, provide them a detailed and shaded appearance and also add some more features for the eye brows, the edge of the nose and the lips.

Pursuing these guidelines will guide you greatly to place the parts together. Furthermore you could utilize this to draw a very first design for portraits that ought to appear like a particular person. Just draw the features and proper their location and proportions until finally the drawing appears like the original. Then and only then it is fine to commence completing in the features.
